The Gameweek rolls on with the final pair of Premier League encounters – both presenting fascinating scenarios, fully stocked with Fantasy talent.

The day begins as St Mary’s where Ronald Koeman’s Southampton face their first grilling as applicants for the role of a top four side. It begins with the harshest of tests against champions Manchester City, presenting a lip-smacking battle between the league’s most potent striker and its most robust rearguard.

Sergio Aguero will be the latest of the Gameweek captaincy candidates to test his mettle, against a Saints back four that has conceded just once all season on home turf. That’s just one of the key battles on show, as City desperately look to seize the opportunity to close the gap on leaders Chelsea following the Blues’ stalemate with Sunderland.

Later today, our focus switches to north London where Everton pay visit to White Hart Lane in a match that pairs two sides with top six ambitions. A host of mid-price prospects are on show, with Fantasy managers holding out for an appearance from Leighton Baines and further encouraging displays from the likes of Christian Eriksen, Harry Kane, Romelu Lukaku and Kevin Mirallas.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Mangala such a class signing.

    1. chrisjdgrady
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Absolute steal

    2. Captain Shirokov
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      30m 😆

    3. Dr. Rog
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      For chelsea

    4. davies
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Still better than Rojo. Time will tell.

      1. djenzio
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        true.

      2. Not Irish
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        No chance.

      3. TeamSteam
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        Rojo`s very average.

    5. Saniul
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Probably he is the reason why they are still 1-0. Took one for the team and Yaya.

      1. Wouter
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        Agreed.

      2. Wilshere Knowledge
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        This.

        Inexperience showing in flahes, but otherwise very good.

  2. Captain Shirokov
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    That why Long should start ahead of Mané. He's a smarter player.

    1. djenzio
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      didn't they both start last week?

      1. Captain Shirokov
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        Well, he should start.

    2. Heydudes13
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Yaya di Maria mk. 2? Cccccant even can't even 😆

      1. Captain Shirokov
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        Sanchez is only 3 points up on him with an extra game played. 😆

        1. Heydudes13
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 4 months ago

          3 points you don't have GAP THE MIND M8 😆

  3. djenzio
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    so glad I kept Baines now 🙂

    cue peno please

  4. Jebiga
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    chadli owners, what are you doing with him ?

    1. Captain Shirokov
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Keeping, he'll be fit to start next gw.

    2. Dr. Rog
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Cursing probably

    3. Cars and Mané
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Keeping. Was benching him next week anyway.

    4. BeachBadger
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      He'll start the next GW I'd say

    5. QPR expects... glory!
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Keeping but only because I need to buy a defender to put XI men out

  5. JWF
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    All down to Eriksen to save my gameweek. Cue a 1 pointer.

  6. vova
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Thanks Danny Rose, your absence means that I have Chambers coming off the bench

  7. davies
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Keep Chadli?

    1. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      May swap for Downing.

    2. Cars and Mané
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Yes

  8. AlCapwnUK
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Re: Chadli

    When fully fit is he in the starting XI ahead of Bentaleb and co?

    1. TeamSteam
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Ofcourse. How can you even doubt this.

      1. AlCapwnUK
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        Spurs just have so many midfielders, and such inconsistent team sheets
        Good to hear, Chadli has been a big help this season

        1. TeamSteam
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          11 years, 4 months ago

          Hes been playing every game. Hes injured, ofcourse hes going right back in.

    2. Cars and Mané
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Yes, absolutely

    3. AlCapwnUK
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Otherwise one of Jedinak/Downing will be coming in between now and Jan WC

  9. Nickofoz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    red card good or bad for aguero?

    1. TeamSteam
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      What do you think?

      1. Nickofoz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        Saints may press more, leaving them exposed...

        1. TeamSteam
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          11 years, 4 months ago

          They`re still a man down. Its never a good thing. They`d have to press anyways since it was 0-1.

    2. Pork Pie Sausage Roll
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      bad

    3. Phaze 1
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      how about you just watch the last 10 mins?

      1. Nickofoz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        Oh, are we not allowed to post during the game? sorry....

  10. fedolefan
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Mangala is the equal of Djimi Traore. Looks just as clumsy and is equally useless.

    1. davies
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      He's dead.

      1. Count of Monte Hristo
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        I know, just heard it

  11. RoysCallerAnne
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    I hope Baines pulls his hamstring on the first minute.

    1. Pork Pie Sausage Roll
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      After doing an overelaborate celebration for scoring a FK

    2. Wouter
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Would still get me more points than Yun off the bench. 😆

    3. Count of Monte Hristo
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      I hope your team suffers as a result of not owning Baines

      1. RoysCallerAnne
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        😀

        I'm still ADM raging

        1. Gnu
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 4 months ago

          Me too. 🙁

    4. Not Irish
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      It's coming.

    5. Randy_Marsh
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Pathetic

      1. RoysCallerAnne
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        Ah get over yourself

    6. mipola
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Don't wish for a player to get injured. Just hope that he gets a red card on the first minute.

  12. Touré De Force
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Likely qualifying score for PP cup? 39 (-8) + Baines doesn't seem good 🙁

    1. Logic
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      whats the pp cup?

  13. Home Run Baker
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Costa to Bony seems like a no brainer. Maybe long-term too.

    1. AlCapwnUK
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      out of interest who are your other strikers?

      Aguero +....

      1. Home Run Baker
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        Aguero and Austin

  14. Piggs Boson
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Own up, who sold Baines this week? 🙂

    1. HuttonDressedasLahm
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Nearly

  15. tm245
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

  16. Wings Fan
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

  17. Randy_Marsh
    • 15 Years

  18. Owd Big 'Ed
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    1. davies
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Bench

    2. BeachBadger
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

  19. BeachBadger
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago
